libregexp-wildcards-perl binary package in Ubuntu Kinetic amd64

 In many situations, users may want to specify patterns to match but
 don't need the full power of regexps. Wildcards make one of those sets
 of simplified rules. Regexp::Wildcards converts wildcard expressions
 to Perl regular expressions, so that you can use them for matching.
 .
 It handles the * and ? wildcards, as well as Unix bracketed
 alternatives {,}, but also % and _ SQL wildcards. If required, it can
 also keep original (...) groups or ^ and $ anchors. Backslash (\) is
 used as an escape character.
 .
 Typesets that mimic the behaviour of Windows and Unix shells are also
 provided.
